Abstrakt
The ongoing synodal process (16th Ordinary General Assembly: For a Synodal Church: Communion, Participation and Mission), which began in October 2021 and will culminate in the same month in 2023/2024, is encouraging broad participation of the faithful in the synods, starting with local Churches. In terms of its concrete objective, it is a reflection on synodality and its exercise around synodal assemblies. This article explores synodality as a constitutive dimension of the Church and its meaning in practice. It delves into the organic cooperation between pastors and the faithful as the basis for the baptised participating in synods. It looks at some specific aspects of synods: their service in favour of communion and mission, an instrument discerning the “dynamic fidelity” which characterises the Church’s journey; the appropriateness of a journey from the peripheries to the centre; the attitudes proper to those who participate in a synod; and the theological-pastoral dimensions of the synod. These take into account the experience of the Church and the current reflection.
